Their issue is that its not certified for flat roofs, regardless of its effectiveness, and the fact the manufacturer state that its suitable for use in small extensions etc as long as it is ventilated. They just want a certified product.

Your right as ever Shy but there are different u-value requirements that relate to where the insulation is to be installed.We have been told that triso etc is not acceptable in pitch roof situations on its own either 
Mik, the whole situation is completely mad, with the government refusing to instruct LABCs to look at the issue of multifoils in a specific manner, so most won't accept it, but approved inspectors will. I believe that Devon is one of only a few LABCs who will accept its use on its own.
The whole theory of U values is fundamentally flawed, in any event.

Finish all the work, and use the extension.
If at some future time you decide to sell, then either sell it as store, or sell it as a room and pay £50 for the stupid indemnity insurance which will keep everyone happy and be cheaper than doing the work which BC want.
